I understand what it's like to be bullied all too well. That's why I connected to it.

Well that's OK. It doesn't really matter how much users I get just as much as people are enjoying what I do. Thanks for the compliment. I'll actually be doing panels at DerpyCon at the end of October.

Well if you're that interested I don't see why not. Just make sure you are cautious about them because remember, there could be copyright infringement. Nonetheless, I am curious to see what you would do for them. I already did a NADIA panel of sorts.

In Memory of Carl Weathers and James Earl Jones as well now

Correct

Don't know yet. I need to take a bit of a break before I decide that.

@@Turnajon I hope it’s something really amazing

Thanks! Much appreciated. I had a great time making this one.

I can't tell you when I'll be able to get to that, but any comments on the video I uploaded? I am proud of it.

Before I watched the ova I listened to ova dub and thought a couple of voices were good and the rest were not so good, but after seeing this video and listening to the ova dub again I think it's a mixed bag. Learning about how the dub was done made me appreciate the dub same with tv series dub. Yeah the tv series dub wasn't great but there were a couple of highlights.

The New York dubs are amazing to behold

I've always considered the OVA dub a classic. If there were any less than perfect voices in the OVA dub it wasn't very noticable to me. Maybe some of the minor background characters, but I felt that the principal characters were all well done, with Deed, Parn, Slayn, Karla, Ashram, and Wagnard being particular standouts.

I would love for books 2-7 to be published in English.

@@RyanTurk-bk9fg Oliver Wyman, Crispin Freeman, Debora Rabbai.

I appreciate the compliment, but this is just missing material for the first time I did the panel. I mean to revise it someday with more up to date information. Including where you can buy it from. And losing the "anniversary" stuff. But that's for another time.

@@Turnajon thank you! I love your content and personality, a real pleasure to watch. Would you ever consider doing a panel on UROTSUKIDOJI - Legend of the overfiend? It’s controversial but a huge fave of mine and I’d love to see you explore it!

@@LovellArt Sorry, but I have no interest in doing that one. I don't do Hentai, unfortunately. Honestly, the sound of that makes me feel sick to by stomach. I don't like to gross people out. But if someone else wants to, great. I just don't feel like I am the one to do it.

Yeah, I was pretty annoyed about that. I would rather hear the dub in better sound quality. The Frontier dub I can't stand.

@@Turnajon Agreed. The audio track can't be terrible forever. It is just a matter of time before someone in Discotek realize that mistake and correct the sound problems. It's just too bad the other version of the Golden Sync dub (the one with the different opening credits and ending which says "THE END - A Samuel Goldwyn Production) isn't around the internet aside from KZbin (but some of the clips were blocked due to Toei's crackdown against those who uses Fair Use for the videos we post). Bummer.

Can't say when, but any comments on this intro? I was really proud of it.

You can attribute that to Miyazaki and Ghibli. They fought hard for their vision to be realized. It resulted in the dub being so good... even though purists think otherwise.

@@dwainsimmons3447 Pffft, like I care.

@@Turnajon but it’s a known fact that Weinstein is a horrible person who don’t care about art.

Thanks. I may have done this a long time ago, but I am grateful you liked it.

Careful about telling that to fans of the FOX dub, though; there are some very vocal fans who will defend it to the death and crucify the new dub. (Trust me, I've seen it happen with redubs.) In all fairness, though, the voices on the FOX dub (technically the ocean dub) were identical on the Ocean/Bandai dub, but it IS bizarre that they used different lines for the broadcast dub and kept the script as is for the home video release. Funimation's dub may not be perfect, but its' better overall.

@@Turnajon ok. But I still hold the VIZ dub of 90s Sailor Moon asó one of my favorite dubs along side with the 4kids dubs of Pokemon and Yugioh.

Regrettably that may not be possible because LODOSS hasn't had a new incarnation since 1998. There were those video games, but that's about it. Who knows though. As for the NY dubbing team, a lot of the actors in the dub have either moved on or either are not doing much anymore. But I would absolutely be all for Bill Timoney and Lisa Ortiz reprising their roles as Parn and Deedlit. I can't imagine anyone other than those two in these roles. Indeed, when I presented the panel live at DerpyCon last fall, one of the audience members was absolutely thrilled to learn about the English cast. I was tickled. It showed me that whatever the internet thinks there ARE fans of the LODOSS dub in real life.

@@Turnajon I think he/she knew the cast from other New York dubs that she watched.

Thanks! Wouldn't it be nice if the novels got translated? I don't know if they will, but it would be nice. I was a little worried about how some viewers might react to the mentions of the voice actors in the dub considering I have seen online slandering of these dubs, but I always considered the LODOSS OVA dub an underrated classic.
